Fay and Ray are committed Christians and go to church every Sunday at Easter and Christmas, but they don’t like it much because of the people.

Fay does a lot of voluntary work and Ray contributes to environmental concerns. He is a shareholder in a South American deforestation project. There’s enough rain without rain forests making more.

They have adopted a red-faced spider monkey in Colchester Zoo. He’s called Zombie.

ANOTHER Brush With The Long Arm Of The Law


It's been another terrible week. Fay and Liz decided to go to Ipswich for some so-called Christmas shopping and a little light luncheon in the 'Drum And Monkey' public house.
Needless to say, bad went to worse, as is so often the case when Liz is on the scene, culminating with Fay being discovered trying to climb a fence in Colchester Zoo armed with an aerosol can, intent on  painting our adopted red faced spider monkey, Zombie, yellow.
The so-called security guards called the local police, who took Fay into temporary custody and she now awaits prosecution, convinced that Colchester Police will invoke United States law which states 'You will be arrested if you paint your horse in Vermont.' This is according to something on the Internet that Liz unhelpfully pointed out, along with the equally alarming information that the selling of horse urine in Vermont requires a license.
So once again, the Bray household is rent with Fay's nocturnal shrieks as she wakes, convinced she languishes in a New England gaol, being taunted by a sadistic Puritan warder.
When will this all end?
